DISCUSSION RESUME - Giving Opinion and Thoughts

GROUP 1: Orangutan Died


Pros
·         Tourist could’ve had bring diseases that was contagious to the orangutans
·         Tourist should’ve stayed 10 meters away from orangutans yet many disobeyed this rule
Cons
·          There are more factors that contributed to orangutan’s death than just human contact
·         Tourist couldn’t resist being that far away from orangutans
My opinion
In my opinion, there are a lot of factors that contributed the death of orangutan, not just human contact. However, I feel like it’s best to not disturb their habitat and just let them live in peace in the forest.


GROUP 2: Girl Was Sexually Assaulted In Depok, No Investigation From Police

Pros
·         Since this news had gone viral, the police should investigate the case despite that the girl didn’t report it to the police
·         The girl was traumatized, so she just couldn’t tell anyone else about her case. That’s why she didn’t report to the police.
Cons
·         The police must follow procedure, because of this they couldn’t investigate the case
My opinion
Sexual assault in woman is still a huge problem in this world. However, lately sexual predators, at least in Hollywood, have been arrested since the age of internet made victims able to talk about their case without being anxious, since a lot of internet users are very supportive towards assault victims. The most recent example of this is Harvey Weinstein, in which the victims confessed about their assault incident, which went viral and ended up with Harvey getting arrested. These women didn’t report to the police, yet police investigated the case anyway. In my opinion, regardless of the girl reporting or not, the police should investigate the case immediately since the story is already viral in social media. A potential rapist is in loose. We really need the authorities to dig this case deeper.

GROUP 3: Legalization of Underage Marriage

Pros
·         It gives more time to plan their adulthood
·         It avoids free sex since they’re legally married
Cons
·         The child isn’t ready biologically, emotionally, and psychologically
·         Childhood moments are cut short due to marriage responsibility
My opinion
Underage marriage is illegal for a reason. Teenagers under 18 years old are not mature enough to think about marriage responsibility since their concept of marriage is often very unrealistic. Their hormones are also very unstable, therefore if they’re already married, that marriage could be in danger due to mood swings. Not to mention that they probably won’t be able to find a job because they’re lacking in experience, so they’ll end up living with their parent’s money and making their parent’s life even harder. In conclusion, I really disagree with legalizing underage marriage.

 GROUP 4: Psychological Test for Driving License is Just a Formality

Pros
·         It took a very long time
·         The test is on paper which might be inaccurate
Cons
·         There are a lot of drivers who can’t control their emotions
·         Psychological test will control their behavior and concentration
My opinion
I feel like psychological test when getting a driver license is very important if it’s done right. Many people who are mentally unable to drive in Indonesia are still getting driver license, which is dangerous for road safety. However, if people could just pay to get a good score on their psychological test, what’s the point?

GROUP 5: Community for Transgender Who Struggled to Get a Job

Pros
·         Transgender can socialize with their peers
·         This community will help trans people make a living
Cons
·         Transgender are not being thankful to God for their own body
·         They can’t get a job and they should just accept it since company refuse to hire people with gender ambiguity
My opinion
Let trans people live, why should we judge them? It’s their life, not ours. If they have gender dysphoria, so be it. I don’t like people who judge other based on their physical looks.

GROUP 6: Zoning Policy Resistance from Parents and Students

Pros
·         Students won’t be tired to go to school because school is near their home
·         There will be no “favorite school” and all school will be equal
Cons
·         Not all area in Indonesia has a school nearby
·         Students would accept getting a school that is very far away from their home if that’s the school they want
My opinion
I understand the ministry’s intention, but if you want all school to be equal, you really need to make all teachers equal as well! And the general school curriculum need to be fixed. The percentage is also really unfair in my opinion, since there were less people who register to school with pure national examination score this year, it won’t fix how unequal schools (at least in Bandung) are. A lot of area in Indonesia has school that is very unfit due to how uncaring the local government are to education, for example a middle school in Padalarang (keep in mind that this is West Java) has unwanted pregnancy problem. As a Padalarang citizen, I don’t want to go to a school like that! This zoning policy really need more thoughts from the minister.

GROUP 7: Green Project for ASIAN Games Still Less Maximum

Pros
·         Indonesia still has forest fire
·         They should’ve prepared it further
Cons
·         It’s impossible to change Indonesia in such a short time
·         Anytime is a good time to make Indonesia a better place
My opinion
I think it’s true that it’s kind of impossible for Indonesia to change in a short time, but still, the government could’ve put more effort for this Green Project.

Bonus: Thoughts on the song "The Man Who Can't Be Moved"

Offer
Maybe I can help you to get a girl who is actually interested in you?
Suggestion
I think he should just get over this girl.
Opinion
I think this man is actually kind of creepy, I don’t think the man mentioned anything about his chemistry with this girl so the listener could make the assumption that this man know nothing about this girl. Move on, already! Your love is nothing but an infatuation. Regarding about the actual song (production and instrumental-wise), it’s nothing interesting, in fact it’s a really generic song, but I don’t mind it very much.
